The Painting:  Inspired by Spirit of Fire and the palette of earthy oranges and rusts balance by deep blues and golds... this dynamic painting evolved.  A blue eyed white horse... of the earth.

The Thought:  Terry is working on his truck.   I have to pray for divine order.   He is after all, an airline mechanic with a practicing license.  He is truly good with cars and loves taking them apart.  He has rules about everything being laid out and marked.  He was good when we moved about marking and remarking boxes and wires with tags of what they go to.   He has his own 'divine order' going on.

I had suggested we take Mr Truck to the fix it mechanic on Monday. We cannot be with out two cars during the week with the daughter in school.  I have to take her every morning around 8:30 and then Dad picks her up at 4:15.  I was only trying to spare him the backbreaking work that it involves working on the truck. He has had a bad back for the past three weeks.  Pretty stubborn he has continued his quest.  He is not sure what all is wrong with it and has approached it putting one fire out at a time to eliminate what it could be.  

I am  a woman... a bit more impatient and of course feel time spent is better going with a fix it shop doing it all at one time.   Taking it apart on Mon/Tues to do the thermastat and whatever else he did... then putting it back together again until next week, when he will take it apart again to do the timing chain/belt... and then back together again until the next week to do the heater core... hummm... too much extra work for this woman.  Still makes more sense to do it all while it is apart in pieces.

God provides us with divine order and we ALWAYS seem to ignore Him.  Well probably 98 percent of the time.  We need to relax and pray more about our actions and decisions.  If you take the attitude of just waiting... waiting on life... you miss out on the joy ahead. Sometimes we have to make those decisions and take those chances to find our desires of the heart.


Today affirm God's divine order through out the day.  The right outcome will appear in perfect time.

I think I will go lease a car this afternoon.

Mixed Media Collage Horse Paintings by Texas Artist Laurie Justus Pace

  © G.O.D. Laurie Justus Pace      Graphics One Design 2013 Horse Collage Fall 2013  12 x 18 inches Mixed Media on Canvas.  This was an intentional paint to imitate one of the 100 ponies I did in 2012. That poor little 8 x 10 pony was loved by a company to do very large prints and it was not here for me to even use to scan... so I created something with the same heart, a kindred spirit. The underlays are pages from a western book and then torn papers of different varieties were added along with stains of paint and purposeful areas of paint.  This would not be a painting I would do today, but the goal was to capture the spirit of the first painting.

'Exhausted' 24 x 24  Oil on Canvas Contact me to purchase by check or paypal. Laurie     © Laurie Justus Pace     Graphics One Design 2010 My Website   Thinking ahead to the Thanksgiving celebration next week, I remembered back to those previous dinners that I cooked, served, ate quickly, and cleaned up.  This is how I felt.  It is probably strange...even for me but I had the best fun sketching it out and painting it. We lost another dear family member this week. She has celebrated her 'continuation' day and is now with her mom and dad and her other cousins.  She leaves behind a family that will always celebrate her gentleness.  My aunt was special to all of us. She loved each of us dearly for who we were and was always ready with a hug or a 'good job'.    My memories are of breakfast pastries smeared with butter on top. It was not like they were not sweet enough as they were, but at her small kitch...

Sleeping Cowboy . Ernest Hemingway . Sunday, a day of rest . Western Painting by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

My life has the tendency to fall apart when I'm awake, you know?” Ernest Hemingway  I really enjoyed painting this scene. It was restful to me as the artist  and loved by our friends.  Sunday is the day of rest. I smiled when I found this in archives and thought it perfect for this day.  If you live in Texas you know that we still have 'rules' about not selling liquor before noon.  If you live in Texas and are in your late thirties and up, you might even remember Blue Laws.   Stores were simply NOT open...
